Someone asked me recently:

“How are people building large property portfolios on average incomes?”

Here’s the truth:
“Large” and “average” are relative.
Portfolio size shouldn’t be measured by the number of properties — but by total asset value and the income it generates.

There’s no secret sauce.

Most of the heavy lifting? It comes down to income.

🔑 Borrowing capacity is driven by active income — so the first step is growing what you earn.

Behind every “successful investor” are seasons of hard work and sacrifice:

▪️ Consistently earning promotions and pay rises
▪️ Taking on second jobs or overtime
▪️ Living at home longer or reducing expenses
▪️ Paying off bad debt, selling assets, staying disciplined
▪️ Investing in your business growth

These are the parts most people don’t see.

From a lending perspective, yes — we can absolutely optimise structures, choose the right lenders, and work within smart frameworks.

But at the end of the day…

Your ability to grow income + a strong lending and investing strategy = serious portfolio growth.

The harder you work, the luckier you get.

Don’t stop investing in yourself.

Today we settled on our 14th property in our combined portfolio and 5th property for Danica! 👏

We’ve been investing since 2011 and it honestly feels surreal how far we’ve come.

There’s many highs and lows, challenges of riding through a wave of interest rate rises, tenancy issues, repairs and maintenance and expensive renovations but we have sure learnt so much more than what you would learn through a book or course.

What drives us to invest more? When is it enough? We get asked this a lot.

It’s not just about financial security. Our goal has become much larger for the greater good - pushing our boundaries through personal growth, helping others, providing homes for people, creating more opportunities for our families, creating and growing businesses, employing more people etc.

Property has given us the opportunities that we could have not imagined possible and the financial security to start a business and grow JD Capital to where we are today.

We are very grateful and look forward to seeing where our property journey takes us next!

Every loan application is not just a loan about borrowing money.

This is a special story.

Every loan has a unique story behind it.

Every loan helps someone achieve their dreams or goals in their lifetime.

I was invited to our client’s wedding this weekend and felt grateful that I was able to help them in one of their special chapters.

One of the highlights from the speeches was the purchase of their acreage land as their home and love for pets which includes a few horses, dogs, cats, ducks, geese and chickens.

Grateful that our job is much more behind getting a loan and making dreams come true.

How we helped a client purchase a commercial warehouse using a lease-doc loan! ✅ Lease-doc loans are a great way to move into commercial property without affecting your borrowing capacity in your personal name. Here’s how the transition usually works:1️⃣ First, clients build a residential property portfolio under their personal name.2️⃣ Then, they release equity from those properties.3️⃣ That equity is used to buy commercial property under a corporate trust. Since commercial purchases generally need at least 35% deposit plus costs, the equity from residential assets helps make that possible. The main advantage is:When you buy under a trust and use a lease-doc loan, the loan doesn’t impact your personal borrowing capacity. That means you can keep growing your commercial portfolio! 📈 Here’s a recent deal we helped finance: 📍 QLD Warehouse💰 Purchase Price: $405,000📐 122 sqm + mezzanine💸 $24,000 net rent📈 6% net yield To qualify for a lease-doc loan, the rental income needs to cover 1.5x the interest repayments at a 65% Loan-to-Value Ratio (LVR). This is a smart way to grow your commercial asset base—using the equity or sale proceeds from your residential properties. 👌

Self-Employed? Here’s What Banks Check Before Lending 💰💼Getting a loan when you’re self-employed isn’t as straightforward as a regular PAYG salary. Since business income can go up and down 📈📉, lenders take a more cautious approach when assessing your application.Tip: Before applying, consult with your accountant and broker! The way you structure your income (PAYG wages, dividends, retained profit, etc.) can impact your borrowing power. 💡Banks used to require two years of financials and tax returns. But today, there are more flexible lending solutions available depending on how long you’ve been trading and how your income is documented.Today, lenders Look at: ✅Net profit (income minus expenses)✅ Business history (ABN & financials)✅ Company liabilitiesHere are Loan Options for Business Owners:✔ Full Doc: 2 years tax returns & financials ✔ Alt Doc: BAS & interim financials ✔ Low Doc: Accountant’s letter confirming income There are more flexible lending options today than ever before!
